Episode Synopsis

What does it mean to take an intentional break? When is it quitting? When it is hitting pause? Why do we feel shame when it’s time to get started again? How do we know when we’re ready to start again? When is it “rest” and when is it “laziness?” Is “lazy” a real thing? (Hint: no, it's not.) This week we're talking about how to get yourself going again after stepping back- intentionally or not! There doesn't need to be shame about not being productive, and we're sharing our own experiences and tips as the podcast comes back from its own little pause!Topics this week include:Strength trainingThe plural of octopusSpring Equinox energy and all the spring cleaning vibesGardening and how 2 hours of pulling weeds can bring up all the metaphors for lifePunxsutawney Phil and earthworms as icons of restRest as resistanceTaking money out of the definition of successCelebrity Fit Club and Bobby BrownOn ramps to motivationDoing "the thing before the thing."This weeks challenge: Define your April goals, and then identify the thing BEFORE that thing.
